Cameron ‘snubbed Obama call’ to play tennis with Charlie Brooks

Chillaxing David Cameron snubbed a phone call from US president Barack Obama to finish a game of tennis, according to Rebekah Brooks’ husband. Cameron’s Old Etonian friend Charlie Brookstold the Racing Post:

“We’re pretty good friends. I played tennis with him at Chequers one day. I won the first set easily, then he won the second set, and then someone came up to him and said ‘Er… Mr Obama is on the phone for you, Prime Minister.’ He said: ‘I think we’ve got time for a third set – tell Mr Obama I’ll ring him back.’ He obviously thought he had me on the ropes, and I beat him two sets to one.”

It will likely be court appearances of a different kind which will preoccupy the Brooks household from now on.

Isobelsays:

One really wonders if the two making replies are for real…. one wants Romney for a couple of terms and Jonathan may I remind you that Cameron is a Servant of the People 24/7 and must put the Country first before his own self inflated ego which obviously took a bashing touche……

Samuelsays:

Completely agree with Geoff, all we have got from Obama is hot air and high rhetoric, I don’t blame Cameron for deciding against speaking to him. Come November, I hope Obama is consigned to the history books.
